Abstract: | The present communication describes the determination of activity of immobilized biocatalysts, from progress curves, in the case of a poorly soluble substrate. Computer simulation is used for the comparison of five well known methods for the determination of initial velocity of the reaction with the modified method of smoothing experimental data by cubic spline. The computer simulation data show that, in the case of poorly soluble substrate, it is expedient to use the method of data linearization in the co-ordinate system p/t versus p and method of splines. |
